The Frenchman Returns Posted July 25, 2019 Evening News reporting that gangs of youths in ongoing mass brawl on Portobello beach A MASS brawl erupted on Porty beach this afternoon in front of shocked families. Tempers flared as gangs of youths headed to the seafront in blazing sunshine. Photos emerged of topless teens squaring up to each other and throwing punches. Police officers swooped shortly before 5.30pm as trouble spilled onto the High Street. A police spokesman said: "At 5.25pm officers in Edinburgh responded to reports of a disturbance in the Portobello area. "This was in the area of the beach and the High Street. The incident remains currently ongoing and officers are in attendance." One 16-year-old boy was given a caution, while two people were left with minor injuries. One bystander said: "Just leaving Portobello beach and no joke 12 police cars/vans have just blue lighted to the beach." https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/crime/gangs-of-youths-in-ongoing-mass-brawl-on-portobello-beach-1-4971392 Anyone seen or heard anything about this?

Salad Fingers Posted July 25, 2019 Seen this happening in Ayr a few years ago. Hundreds of wee scratters from Glasgow and Paisley scrapping on the beach, throwing bottles where kids were playing. Pure scum behaviour. Was on the train to Ayr on Tuesday with the wee man on the way to the cinema and was happy to see loads of police on the platforms at Troon and Ayr confiscating their alcohol.

Sierra Delta Posted July 25, 2019 I went for a stroll along the prom around 8pm last night and there were a large number of strange, youthful characters around the arcades. Not really surprising when you mix idiots, sunshine and alcohol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Locky Posted July 26, 2019 They left the beach in a total state, and the locals have been down cleaning it up. Scum honestly. Anywhere else in the world, the sun comes out and people hit the beach to relax, swim and just have a good day out. Here, yoofs just see it as another opportunity to get smashed and go scrapping. Genuinely hate this country sometimes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
